Bug Description

When multiple events are added to a single date, the entire grid grows and the minimum size for the window changes.

A possible solution is to only display the number of events in the grid itself and display the actual events in the sidebar once the date is focused. Another solution is to only display the first 3 (or more) events and add "x more events" at the bottom. This way the minimum needed grid size is fixed an limited.

I've taken a look at how Google Calendar handles it when you resize your screen to very small sizes. The things I noticed:
- Events are written rather small, to fit a lot in the box,
- As far as width goes: rather than wrapping the text of an event, it just falls out of the box,
- As far as height goes: as many events as possible are left in the box, with an "x additional events" notice at the bottom if necessary.

I'll try implementing this in the coming days in lp:~niels-avonds/maya/maya-grid
